Hare Krsna Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
HpS - ASA - Paoho and agtylf.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
ASA - !!!
All glories to Guru parampara.
ASA - ! ! !*
Hope you are good in health.
HpS - We are immortal but Brother Ass, the Donkey that we ride through this world, IS a disease. Our eyes are failing, two teeth gone, half deaf, short term memory diminished, knees getting weak, respiration shallow, but even though it is an old car it is well maintained. AGTSP, ISKCON, and we look forward to good service until the final collapse (2024).
Personally, we are surprised that we are making spiritual advancement, AGTSP, ISKCON, we are really trying to get ready for life after death and waking up, and developing our eternal service and its application in this world. Jaya, Sri Hanumatpresaka, Sri Ramacandra Bhagavan.
Wanted to be good in Kirtan so thinking to start practice from tomorrow.
So if you can advise anything which can help to pick it fast, would be good for me.
i would focus on those points while practicing.
While, i have finalized topics for preaching in Chhattisgarh. Planning to go in
December first week for 15 days.
Continuing with 32 rounds, hope to increase 40 rounds after a certain time.
Hope to keep upgrading spiritually as you expect from me.
Thank you so much Gurudev for everything.
your fallen servant,
Girivaradhari-Gopal Das
HpS - We admire your determination. Please write to us when you leave for Chhattisgarh. Then we shall see you at the end of January. Now looks like land 23 January and then head to Govardhana Eco Village GEV. Let's all go. Education symposium. Then back to Pune (BBY) for the same in ISKCON and outside universities. Then Delhi/Vraja. Then 15 Feb - 15 Mar (?) Kolkatta Mayapura. Then two, three weeks in the North East.
By "Kirtan" do you mean singing and dancing in the Temple and Public, or do you mean direct distribution of books? In either case, listen. When you chant, lead a Kirtan, listen to the response that the others make. When you approach people to show books, listen to their response. Then from your K.C. nature it will be natural to respond. 1) We must be pure (eg. FMP), 2) Krsna will send innocent people, 3) They must be patient to understand the situation of this material world.
Thank you. Respects to everyone!
